dana bash is still with us. what are you learning? >> while i was talking to you, i got a message, an e-mail saying -- from a senior democratic source saying the goal is tonight. the goal is to have a vote in the senate tonight. we were talking about how republicans were saying that but don't run the senate. we can't call it a deal, but they're working towards that. >> what would be the big deal if the vote in the senate is delayed until tomorrow morning? >> you know, technically not much. i think psychologically, the fact that we are all talking about the house not being able to vote tonight as us technically going over the fiscal cliff is something that they recognized in the senate. and i also think that for senate republicans and even some democrats, it's not as much of an issue to be able to take home politically the idea of voting for a tax cut as opposed to a tax increase which the house would be doing tomorrow. also just the idea of momentum. they've got the momentum. they don't want to blow it if they've got it. >> you know t

dana telsey is a retail analyst. >> whether it was hurricane sandy, the need to spend on the home; whether it was the tragedy in connecticut, and took away the feel-good factor-- it was a confluence of events that led to a "should have been better" holiday season. >> reporter: a big part of the problem was in the densely populated northeast, where more than a fifth of country's retail sales take place. holiday spending priorities shifted after hurricane sandy as homeowners focused more on repairs than on gifts. also dragging down sales was uncertainty about the so-called fiscal cliff, tax hikes and spending cuts set to take effect next year. if lawmakers don't reach a deal to avoid it, consumers could see higher taxes eating into their paychecks. even online sales suffered. compared to past years of double-digit growth, this year, online holiday sales rose only about 8%, compared to nearly 16% last year. overall, holiday spending accounts for up to 30% of retailers' annual sales, so the disappointing season is a concern for an economy struggling to recover. >> consumers need to have more c
